    Redwing Elite 50cc Slick 540 (new scheme)

    yes and yes! One is a hybrid that shares some real features. Another is a scale plane that we've been working on a for a while but will probably not be ready till late in the year. So the first one is the hybrid version

    Redwing Elite 50cc Slick 540 (new scheme)

    It's still not firm, as China is still officially on holiday for another few days. But it should be about what is on the site for each respective plane. We are getting 2 waves of containers in. One early march one april. We should be announcing a new plane soon also!

    DTH7 you hit the nail on the head. They are more complex to build so more expensive AND don't sell well, as guys, while they may get the itch, aren't a popular model becuase of the extra set up at the field. I guess if we had a petition from a couple dozen people we may change our mind on that...

    The MXSR we made extensive design changes. It was one of the earliest designs our factory made for us. they now know what we want so instead of 3 or 4 prototypes it is usually 1 or 2. But yes we do work on the designs carefully

    Everyone has LOVED this plane! You guys are going to love it. And when you get a taste of this one, you are going to want to try some of our new models coming out. Got a few secret planes in the works (for now)

    Building of the 30cc Slick 540 from Redwing RC!!!

    Hey Blake This was open on ours too. It is a carbon fiber reinforcement rod. I thought it was just open on ours as it was the one they photographed at the warehouse for us and they wanted to show the CF reinforcement. Were all of yours like this? You can cover it and we can send you some...

    Building of the 30cc Slick 540 from Redwing RC!!!

    Hey Guys - we are teaching Kaitlin at the warehouse what all goes into building a plane so she can better help customers. we had a little fun with the vents on this. we cut them out and then used fiberglass cloth to glue "hinged" back in place. So it's not just a big hole, and when pressure...

    Redwing RC 76" MXS-R

    Here's a maiden (seems most guys record their first flight and I guess get tired of bringing the camera later!) But watch the landing at 8:50. That tells you a lot (how much if floats). you can also see how well it tracks even on his first flight was very comfortable with it...

    Redwing RC 76" MXS-R

    There's actually a lot of average flyers videos out there already. I'll see if I can find some but you can get some on you tube. unfortunately many are maidens where they just stay high and it's quite boring. But I agree! I think this is helpful to see as well. Luckily, it makes ok pilots...

    Redwing RC 76" MXS-R

    Really nice flying Brian! that plane really excels at the stuff you threw at it!! I love four point rolls and rolling harriers with it as well. I saw some rolling harriers. Did you get a chance to try out 4 points or slow rolls with it?

    Redwing RC 76" MXS-R

    No bad, and remember this is a 76" wingspan. Not a 74 like many other 30cc. It's got a very full fuse and between that and the wings make it very floaty. We would love to hear how you like it in flight and see any video photos you get. Thanks Gapple12
